muda tapi tua kenape mesti berlian??


Sunday, February 22, 2009


BARU-BARU ini, saya dapat satu cerita menarik. Seorang rakan memberitahu, masyarakat di sebuah negeri Pantai Timur adalah yang paling ramai memakai susuk!

Ini cerita benar, katanya. Terbukti berdasarkan rekod perubatan. Ketika ujian x-ray (sinar-x) dijalankan, itu dia... mencanak-canak butiran logam ditemui pada wajah. Bukan di situ saja, hingga ke bahagian sulit juga `dihiasi' butiran logam ini dan mereka akui ia adalah susuk. Ishhh..sampai begitu sekali ya.

Tujuan? Tak tahulah kita sebenar-benarnya tetapi jika kita tanya pada mereka yang memakai susuk ini, macam-macam jawapan mereka - mencantikkan wajah, menaikkan seri, mengeratkan hubungan suami isteri, 1001 macam alasan.

Apa yang pasti, dalam negara semakin berkembang maju, amalan yang dianggap tradisional dan penuh misteri atau `mistik' itu rupa-rupanya masih segar. Cuma mungkin kaedah memasukkan susuk ini yang berubah, bertambah maju juga.

Baru-baru ini, saya pasti mereka yang `takut' tua dan hilang seri tersenyum lebar gara-gara pengenalan satu lagi kaedah untuk menegangkan kulit.

Jika diteliti prosesnya, tidak ubah seperti susuk ala tradisional.

Memasukkan emas pada wajah untuk mengurangkan kedut, menegangkan kulit dan pastinya, matlamat utama, tampil muda menawan walaupun hakikatnya sudah tua!

Bezanya, kaedah moden ini menggunakan benang emas bukan butiran emas atau logam lain, bukan juga berlian dan kedua, cara memasukkannya yang tampak lebih realistik (menerusi pembedahan) dan tidak mistik, menggunakan jampi dan mantera sebagaimana kaedah tradisional.

Mungkinkah ini boleh dikatakan susuk moden? Benarkah ia berkesan? Bagaimana dengan kesan sampingan kerana mengikut dunia saintifik, setiap logam, tidak kira apa juga jenis logam, termasuk emas yang dianggap sebagai antara logam paling stabil, adalah toksik kepada sistem badan. Bermakna ia memudaratkan kesihatan, itu muktamad. Persoalannya cuma kesannya cepat atau lambat, sedikit atau banyak.

Ikuti tulisan Diyanah Anuar mengenai isu ini. Apa kata pakar kimia, pakar pembedahan plastik juga ahli agama? Adakah hukum memakai susuk moden ini? Adakah ia `dihalalkan' kerana tidak membabitkan hal mistik?

Apapun, pada saya kecantikan asli adalah kecantikan abadi. Kita lihat saja sekeliling kita. Pasti kita dapat lihat ramai wanita yang semakin menawan apabila usia meningkat sekali pun wajah dihiasi kedutan. Wajah matang, penuh keyakinan menjadikan ramai wanita, tidak ketinggalan lelaki semakin anggun, tampan, berketrampilan.

Namun, satu lagi kecantikan yang sering dilupakan adalah kecantikan dalaman. Apalah gunanya wajah cantik bak bidadari tetapi busuk hati dan penuh hasad dengki, betul tidak? Oleh itu, hargailah kecantikan, kecantikan yang sejati.

m0st Love I give for


Saturday, February 21, 2009

I would give up everything Before I'd separate myself from you After so much suffering I've finally found unvarnished truth I was all by myself for the longest time So cold inside And the hurt from the heart it would not subside I felt like dying Until you saved my life Thank God I found you I was lost lost without you My every wish and every dream Somehow became reality When you brought the sunlight Completed my whole life I'm overwhelmed with gratitude Cause baby I'm so thankful i found you. I would give you everything There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do To ensure your happiness I'll cherish every part of you Because without you beside me I can't survive Don't wanna try If you're keeping me warm each and every night I'll be all right Cause I need you in my life Thank God I found you (I'm thanking you) I was lost lost without you (so lost without you) My every wish and every dream (every dream, every dream) Somehow became reality When you brought the sunlight (brought the sunlight) Completed my whole life I'm overwhelmed with gratitude Cause baby I'm so thankful I found you. See I was so desolate Before you came to me Looking back I guess it shows That we were destined to shine After the rain to appreciate The gift of what we have And I'd go through it all over again To be able to feel this way Thank God I found you I was lost lost without you (lost without you baby) My every wish and every dream Somehow became reality When you brought the sunlight Completed my whole life (whole life) I'm overwhelmed with gratitude Sweet baby I'm so thankful I found you Thank God I found you I'm lost lost without you I'm overwhelmed with gratitude My baby I'm so thankful I found you I'm overwhelmed with gratitude My baby I'm so thankful I found you

While modern culture assigns value to diamonds for their tremendous beauty and their indicator of an individual’s wealth or fortune, many ancient people gave the stones value for their strength and symbolism. The Greeks gave the stone its more modern name by calling it “adamas” which translates to “unconquerable”. The hardness of the stone is no mystery, and the tools of the ancient time of the Greeks would have found the stone impossible to cut or conquer. Other societies have given the carbon crystal value for its “magical” or healing properties and as protection.
Because of its human history, with reference existing in most known cultures, and its actual geological life span, a diamond is one of the most antiquated and ancient objects that human beings can buy and own. Today’s diamond ring or pendant may have been born anywhere from fifty million to two billion years earlier.
The famous and ancient “Arthsastra” manuscript gives us the first written notation of the diamond. The Romans are the next to speak of diamonds, believing them to be tears of their many Gods. They wore diamonds to protect themselves from many common problems and to give themselves the invincibility of the stones.
This combat use of diamonds led later societies to assign them to the protection of their Kings, and royalty would soon be the only group allowed to possess and wear the gems. Kings had special armor and decoration for battle and combat and these pieces were frequently laden with diamonds. This may be the reason many kings survived a great deal of battlefield activities, since the diamonds would identify them as protected from evil and unconquerable.
In the 1200s King Louis IX of France made it law that diamonds were to be worn only by the King - thus began the diamond’s journey towards incredible value and status. Only a century later however rings of the wealthy were being set with gemstones and diamonds, but not as aesthetic decorations, but as amulets of protection against murder, beasts and phantoms. Many people who encountered diamonds believed them to be a cure against poison, while others believed powdered diamonds to be tremendously toxic.
The mystery and mystique of diamonds only continued to grow and their possession was only to be in the hands of wealthy or royal peoples. Finally, their symbolism turned to a more decorative nature, and their value made them excellent tokens of affection. In 1477 the first diamond engagement ring was presented to Mary of Burgundy by the Archduke Maximilian of Austria. At that time diamonds were left in their original condition, uncut and rather pyramid shaped, but quite quickly the art of gem cutting developed. By the 1500s, Venice, Italy was a trade capital and diamond cutting center for the world.
Among the most common forms for early diamonds to be worn were in rings or set in bands. By the early eighteenth century the diamond industry had developed to a level that allowed most upper and middle class individuals to be able to acquire a piece of diamond jewelry. By this time settings took less precedence and the stones themselves were the focus. It was common for women to wear diamonds, and most socially active individuals would possess a matched set of earrings and a necklace for outings and events.
It was also during this time period that diamond cut styles began to change dramatically. Prior to the advent of gas lighting the large flat rose cut was acceptable for most diamond jewelry. The jeweler would then set the stones in their simple gold settings and back the diamond with a foil intended to add sparkle to the gem. With powerful interior lighting, diamond cutters began to experiment with techniques intended to enhance the light and fire of the stone without artificial backings. This introduced cuts such as the brilliant cut, and innovative jewelers began using white gold and silver or platinum to better reflect and enhance the new “sparkle”.
Late in the nineteenth century troves of diamonds were discovered in Africa, which flooded the world market and made diamonds available to anyone who could afford them. At almost the same time the government of France sold the royal jewel collection in public auction. This eliminated the last vestiges of exclusive ownership for diamonds and allowed crown jewels to be worn by anyone who could afford their auction price.
Today diamonds are seen as a sound investment and an expression of affection. It is a common occurrence for a man to ask a woman to marry him, and secure the agreement with a diamond engagement ring. This is seen as symbolic of love and commitment on the part of a young man both for the value of the ring, and the beauty of the stone and its setting.

'die' indah cantik dan berharga




aku suke berlian.
sesuatu yang indah dan melambangkan keanggunan.
cantik yang tidak boley diluahkan dengan kata-kata.
seorang perempuan yang tahu nilai berlian pasti
terlalu taksub dan teruja.
berlian tidak mampu diungkapkan.
tersimpan beribu rahsia disebalik sebuah berlian.
chenta dan kasih sayang seseorang teruna dan dara pasti berakhir
dengan sebentuk cincin berlin di jari manisnye.
begitu besar makna sebuah berlian ini.
